And probably my final post of the day, this is the best deal I've found on Usenet service (I'm using it myself!). It is only available for a limited time (they do not specify how long or when it expires). Hurry and read about it and sign up! By the way, this site does not have an affiliate program yet, so they aren't paying me to hype it up. I just really like them :)

And just to be clear, this link helps define what Usenet is, in case I didn't explain it well enough before. Hope this helps some of you!

NZBsRus.com - Usenet Newsgroup NZB File Search Service
Just in case you are a more advanced user, this is a very helpful service to you! It will allow you to download a file that will have all the necessary information for your newsreader to get a specific set of files from usenet. Basically, it allow you a quick start at using usenet if you are used to bittorrents or other p2p programs. I'll go into more detail later on this but suffice to say this is a site worth checking out. It allows limited free use, but they have an offer of lifetime vip access if you hurry! Good Luck!

MPA Set to Challenge Newzbin Usenet Indexer in Court | TorrentFreak

I wouldn't let this frighten you if you were just getting started into the usenet  world. I don't see the MPA  winning this (of course, I don't think the Pirate Bay case should have gone the way it did either). Nothing that Newzbin does is illegal as far as I can tell (if so, then a lot of companies are in trouble, especially Google!). One benefit of usenet, though, is that it's hard to track downloaders. Uploaders can also disguise themselves if they want to as well.
